    This is the list I played since KTk released. It did so well that it got hated out.

    4 Akroan crusader
    4 monastery Swiftspear
    4 firedrinker satyr
    4 frenzied goblin
    4 satyr hoplite

    4 titans strength
    4 inferno fist
    4 coordinated assault
    4 hammerhand
    4 stoke the flames

    Board

    4 searing blood
    4 lightning strike
    4 blinding flare
    3 magma jet

    Land: 16 mountains

    This did well against midrange and control but it can have trouble with token decks or anything that can match it's speed.

    The key to winning is managing you hammerhands properly.

  • posted a message on looking for tips on combatting green devotion decks

    I had been playing heroic red for some time and I became bored so it being tax time I decided to invest in a deck that has a plan beyond turn four. I built abzan midrange since siege rhino thoughtseize and windswept heath I expect they will hold some of their value and the play style was exactly what I was looking for. The wrinkle however is the new green devotion decks, they flood the board with permanents making my siege rhino and tasigur useless. The only thing I havre thought of was to side in board wipes like duneblast and end hostilities And drown in sorrow. This is my deck as it is now.


    Creatures
    .......................
    4 siege rhino
    4 courser of Kruphix
    4 sylvan caryatid
    2 tasigur golden fang
    2 wingmate roc

    Walkers
    ......................
    2 elspeth sun's champion
    2 sorin solemn visitor

    Spells
    ...............
    4 hero's downfall
    4 bile blight
    4 abzan charm
    4 thoughtseize

    Lands
    ...............
    2 temple of silence
    2 temple of malady
    2 temple of Plenty
    3 llanowar wastes
    4 windswept heath
    4 sandsteppe citadel
    2 swamp
    2 plains
    3 Forest

    Sideboard so far

    4 end hostilities
    2 duneblast
    3 drown in sorrow
    2 anafenza the foremost
    2 archfiend of depravity

    Sorry for the lack of card tags I a, using a tablet.
